In this work, we present a demonstration of a visual interactive tool called ESSAVis that helps different engineers in collaborating together for understanding the failure mechanisms in complex embedded systems. ESSAVis provides a 2Dplus3D visual user interface that integrates intuitively between different data sets related with embedded systems failure mechanisms. The tool accepts a CFT model describing a specific hazard in the underlying system, and a CAD model describing the geometry of system components. In this paper, we present different interaction options of ESSAVis that are used for intuitively extracting safety aspects of the underlying embedded system.
